    Best Buy delivered super quickly. It was a great value. It was the best deal when compared to other sites including A*****, E***, and W*******. Love the 128 size for all my music and to read e books with. Paired with any wireless headphones makes it doubly great.

    Great iPad and lots of space. Just a little disappointed that the same iPad came on sale for fifty dollars less and I went to the Best Buy store and said that they only had a fourteen day policy I thought it was thirty days like usual. I was disappointed

    This IPad can pretty much do everything a laptop can do. I highly reccomend for students who want to go the light weight route with online books and want less to carry around. Plus with ebooks, it’s so convenient having text books with you at all times.

    I was running out of memory on my 1st edition iPad Air. The new iPad has all the same great qualities as the Air 2nd edition with more memory at a fantastic price.

    I chose the mid-level iPad to replace my 8 year old original iPad after its power connection broke. I was happy with my original iPad and am with this one as well. I upgraded to more memory so I can take more movies with me when I'm not connected to the internet.

    This is my third iPad. I had an iPad Air 2 and I gifted it to my son for a new one with more storage. The only thing I'm not crazy about is that the thickness increased back to the original iPad Air size. While pricey, you can't go wrong with Apple products.

    A definite improvement on ipads of the past. I'm a little weirded out by button placement for the on/off and volume buttons, but that's because I'm used to something different on past tablets. Otherwise, it works as advertised.

    Positive: 1) I've had a number of iPads over the years and this size is the best. 2) The retina screen resolution is absolutely gorgeous. 3) Battery life just keeps getting better. Negative: I wish Apple would not change connectors as much as they do.

    2017 Model IPad replaced and retired my old IPad

    If you have a sluggish older IPad, a newer model might be needed to get you back on track. This 2017 IPad fixed all the issues I was having with my old model. Technology keeps advancing and the 2017 IPad is a good example of technology improvements from Apple. We went with the maximum memory - 128 GB with WiFi and we love this new device! The Best Buy rep backed up my old device to the iclound and restored all my apps to my new device. The only thing, your Safari browser will inherit all your previous information. I suggest that go to Settings/Safari and "Clear History and Website Data" to be sure you get max speed across your intenet connections. Good job Apple! Also, you can contact Apple Support and get their 2 yr Apple Care for only $99. You have 60 days after your purchase date to do that. With that, you can get certified Apple service for your product from any Apple store in the US.

    Most people have tablets by now, but the easiest to use are iPads. Great purchase especially if already own other Apple products. Just make sure you purchase a good protector since it'll be expensive to replace.

    Great speed. Large display is a great compliment to our laptop, I think it's jealous. Not crazy about iPad only apps and the differences in functionality between iPhone and iPad can be frustrating at times but that's on Tim Cook and the funky bunch.

    This is my third IPad and by far the fastest and most reliable to connect to wifi. Have tried other tablets from Lenovo and they all have poor battery and wifi performance. My wife has had an original and an air and the latest version blows them away.

    I bought this to replace an old iPad Air with less memory. I am happy with the 128 GB of memory in my new iPad, and I like the Touch ID feature. This tablet allows me to do everything I want--watching live sports, listening to music, surfing the internet, etc.
